Like the title says post your setting
I made this because of the new Hefe kernel from Jeffsf (many many thanks).
So anyway I saw alot of people posting their setting in the q&a for the kernel which is cool and I love to read other peoples settings, but it makes the q&a very long and causes people not to want to read it so post your setting here.
Please be as specific as you want and include benchmarks if you like, what rom your on, scheduler, app used to OC/UV, also any mods, stability and battery life reports and whatever else you would like.
Hope to see some posts here
And oops already made a request to sixstring to have this move to the general section (wasn't paying attention )
Ok i'm running Dao's linaro cm9
I use voltage control to overclock to 1.2ghz and I increase the voltage 25mv on 1200mhz, i'm not trying to get better battery.
I use a noop scheduler with the smartassv2 governor
Antutu benchmark scores 3435

First question:
I'm using no-frills CPU to Overclock. I have HTC inspire 4g running coredroid 6.6 what would be a good starting point for my
Min. Clock freq? And my max clock freq? And also what do the freq's do? Help please trying to get the most out.
Also if someone would explain what the governers are....

Second question:
How do I properly flash a kernel. Currently using coredroid 6.6 and wanting to flash the new leedroid kerbel. What is the propper way to do so?

If you download the kernel listed in my sig, then you can flash it via Clockwork Recovery. As far as the governers, I'm not too familiar with them myself, but here is a little info about some of them. I believe Smartass is a little newer or made for specific kernels, so there doesn't seem to be much info on that one.
Pretty much trial and error and see what one works best for you. With LeeDroid's latest kernel, SetCPU lets you go as high as 1800Mhz or so, and I had it set to that as max, with 500Mhz (or whatever setting was closest to it), but just lowered my OC a bit to a little over 1000Mhz to try and get some more battery life out of it.
Okay thank you very much. Nobody got back to me last night. I had leedroid new kernel an i flashed it, and I noticed a HUGE difference in how fast it was.
When downloading new ROMS like some say data+++, aosp, an so on.... What does all that mean? I'm very new to all this but slowly catching on.
Also I don't have set CPU, you have to buy it... I have no frills CPU

Even though I've been rooting since my Captivate in August of last year, I'm still a newbie as well. All I can suggest is: Read, Read, and Read some more. That is how I learned a lot, asking questions only when I had exhausted my search- fu.
A lot of the times the answer you need has been answered by someone in some thread.
What do you think is the best OC/UV app ? If so can you also post the recommendations ? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!
There's been thousands of posts, not sure of threads, in the forum regarding this.
Tegrak OC seems to be the most popular though. Most tend to stay away from SetCPU.
I personally never OC or UV. I find that my speed and battery life are perfectly acceptable.
Yeah tegrak seems to be what everyone uses. I stay away from OCing though because i don't really see the purpose of OCing just for browsing the web, text messaging, Facebook, twitter, and YouTube. The phones really smooth already. I'm probably going to UV though to get a little better battery life.

You can't oc with set CPU without an overclock kernel

Tegrak Ultimate since it allows OC/UV with a kernel module as opposed to requiring a OC/UV kernel.

For this phone tegrak is the best with the most control paid version is well worth it
at first this phone relied on overclocking but months later it is no longer needed imo, i just stay at 1000 mhz stock with undervolting and my phone feels as smooth as a 1.2 thank you gingerbread lol
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
I use tegraq (paid) version to UC.. everything is so smooth now, the UC gives battery life and my quadscore is still in the 2500 range.
TegraK
Hi,
I'm interested only in UV, since my phone is super fast with Valhalla 1.1 ROM
and Adrenaline Shot X, but i drain my battery every day!
can you please explain -
1. can i undervolt using the free edition of tegrak ?
2. do i need to replace the kernel or can i work with tegrak app out of the box?
i didn't get that.
Thanks !
Well I just downloaded Taegrak ultimate, but it seems like my values will never stay ! I tried setting my CPU Lv 0 to 1000,1165,1055 but it'll always revert back to normal. Sometimes I'll catch a glimpse of "Targrak has unexpectedly.."
I'm using AOSP+ ICS ROM with the latest Matr1x kernel. Whenever I try to OC to 1460 the phone freezes and I have to pull the battery, so I'm forced to run at a maximum of 1300MHz.
Also, on a related matter, is it good practice to use SetCPU with various profiles (battery<, temp>, screenoff, charging) for various frequencies? Or should I just use AOSP+ tweaks to chose a min and max frequency and let it be?
Thanks for taking the time to answer these.

If you are using deep idle you shouldn't underclock since it causes a race-to-idle condition. In other words your battery will drain faster. If you don't use deep idle, feel free to underclock when the screen is off or whatever you want.

Can I do this via AOSP+ tweaks and still use SetCpu to OC and UC? Are they conflicting apps? (Deep idle OFF)

Just an update, Using CNA 1.4.0 and Matr1x v17, I am stable oc'ed to 1460.
this is what I am running
1)800/1460
2)gov =Ondemand
3)Scheduler =Noop
4)all voltages to +30 (used the cna rom's voltage tweaker)
I tried ShadowGun: the Leftover.. and It was flying. Of course, make sure that have enough battery or that you have a charger ready. But finally it works, try this and let me know
I can run it for 10-20 min of usage then get a freeze. I never raised the voltages before though. It seems like its working for other people. And the actual developer of Matrix Kernel is telling you to ....
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
AOKP (Build 25)
Eugene's Kernel (Speedy 7)
OC 800/100 (Lionheart)
Live OC (105)
It still amazes me how so many people that ask about overclocking have no frigging idea at all how cpus/gpus in general are binned etc.
I have a question. Why do you guys overclock that much? It might be snappy but battery life is just bad and it just doesn't worth it in my opinion.

Personally, I do it because I can. Seriously... I'm a geek, I love gadgets and tech and I like to tinker.
On the subject at hand, I'm still unable to OC to 1460 (ARM voltages +30, INT voltages +25) but at 1300 it runs fine, no issues whatsoever.
i can run 1460 stable all day. bigxie/matrix. just did +30 to all the voltages above 1000. deadline and lulzactive..
If you are a geek you would know about something as simple as binning chips. Do what a tech geek would do...look it up. Same thing the op should have done with his ?. Hell mathkid has a answer to his ? In the op of his kernel thread. Which is the kernel he is running

And just wondering if i should let it be what overclock settings would be good as it has daemon config installed any way just wondering where to go from a new flash

Thread moved to Q&A. Also, I am not sure I understand your question.
Well mostly like what setting should i use too gain both decent battery life and the best preformance, androidrevolutionHD is what i just flashed and the kernal im using is 2.6.36.4-g6aa10ba [email protected] #20111023
Is there a differnt kernal i use or an app to have better control of overclocking maybe what settings are best...
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
Get setcpu from the market, max out the slider both way (100 min, 1500 max) and set it on either interactive or ondemand, those are good for battery savings.
You can review what the governors do here;
http://www.everythingabouttablets.net/2012/01/22/android-overclocking-governors-explained/
The TF will take 1500mhz pretty stable, I don't recall ever getting a freeze up or random reboot with my clock settings maxed out.
And see my signature for a good noob guide.
Is there an app that will work to control voltage on ICS yet?

Voltage adjustment is not really necessary, unless you are increasing voltages for overclocking.

Uhh, no. I suggest you read up on the findings/observations documented by multiple kernel developers and bedalus's kernel testing posted here. UV has no effect on power consumption.

Well I tested it on my friends nexus s 4g and my epic 4g and with a lot of UVing. Lemme further explain.
Okay when you UV it just uses less amount of voltage on that frequency so in essence you save battery because not as much voltage is being used. Now however if you UV by a lot like -100mV and higher the phone will lagg a bit. If you overvolt your pushing more voltage to the phone which is more power being used.
I just tested my phone freqs. Used were 100,200,400,600,800,1000 And all were UVed by -100mV and playing games and using lower freqs it will lagg. When I didn't UV at all it never lagged.
Not to mention BTW I was @ 88% before and it only took me 2 mins to post this and now I'm at 86% with no UV at all. And last post before this I took me same time with UVed I went from 95% to 95% lol.

Well I can say every phone is a tad bit diff. But for whatever reason no matter who's phone when I UV if the phone handles it it. It saves me battery I want you to test this and see.
Run whatever scheduler and say performance run 100 MHz by -200mV like and 200 Mhz by -150mV and so forth. Play GtA 3 and watch when UVed it laggs and when Not it laggs stillbut not as bad. I mean hell even 1.5GHz no UV I still lagg haha
